Grateful and Blessed - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Feature

Hello! Today is a special STAMPtember surprise from Simon Says Stamp - and instead of a special collab or huge release, its a special release of a stamp with coordinating stencils, plus a few coordinating items, AND a FLASH SALE (use COUPON code SPEEDY to get discount!) on all previously released stamp and stencil sets! You can find them all tucked into this category HERE if you want to check out the options! I used ALL of the new sets to create this pair of cards - and I'm loving how they turned out! 

I used the Grateful Moments set to stamp out lots of the images - stamping all the florals and pumpkins a couple times, then heat embossing with clear embossing powder. I then used the coordinating stencils to color them all in with these inks: Butter, Cantaloupe, Shell, Cookie, Clay, Marine, Eucalyptus, and Juniper. Once they were all colored, I die cut them with the coordinating dies. I die cut and built the new Watering Can die with Sage and Mint cardstocks, ad blended on a bit of Eucalyptus ink for some extra shading and dimension, and also die cut the new Timeless Grateful from black cardstock and vellum for the shadow layer. To create a base for my scenes, I used Petal Point Frames and die cut one from white cardstock, then used Cropping Panels as a stencil to add blended color in the center of the panels. Once those were done, I built my scene using the stamped and stenciled flowers and die cut elements. Finished off with the additional sentiments stamped and die cut, some white twine tied around the jar on the left card, and a few Dazzling Clear gems to finish off! Here are lots more photos of these finished cards:

La La Land Crafts - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Collaboration

Good evening! I totally missed posting this morning for the next Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Exclusive Collaborations from La La Land Crafts - the stamp and die set is already sold out unfortunately, but since the stamp set is still available, I figured I should get it up! My daughter's birthday was yesterday, and this weekend was a flurry of celebrating her, so at least I have a good reason for being late, right?

I kept this card pretty simple! I stamped and heat embossed the image from Merriest Christmas on watercolor paper, then colored in with watercolors. I created a frame from white glitter cardstock using Chunky Ovals die, and inset a smaller white panel cut with the same die, popping the frame up with foam adhesive strips. Cardbase is Sea Glass cardstock, and after rounding off one corner, I swiped a white pigment ink pad around the edges for a touch of a frosty look. Finished off with a few coordinating enamel dots!

Pinkfresh Studio - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Collaboration

Hello again! I've only got a few more surprises to share with you this month, and today is the next of the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Exclusive Collaborations! Today we are featuring the ever lovely designs of Pinkfresh Studio with a gorgeous stamp and die set with a layering stencil to color your image in beautifully! I was so tempted to go with pink or red blooms, but decided to slightly embrace the beginnings of fall with yellow flowers, but still keep the green tones, since summer hasn't fully abandoned most of us yet!

I started off by stamping the main image from Grace and Gratitude, and heat embossing in gold. I then used a mix of SSS inks with the layering stencils to color in - Zest, Honey, Mandarin, Jade, Eucalyptus, and Juniper. I stamped one of the sentiments from the set (love the font on these - as well as the sentiment options!) - and then die cut them all out. I had a leftover frame that was from die cutting an A2 Stitched Rectangle from Sage cardstock that was a perfect pairing, and I used Cream cardstock for the cardbase for some subtle contrast with the white cardstock used for the stamping and stenciling. A few Dazzling Clear gems finish this card off! Here is a closer look at all the details:

Gina K September 2026 Release Cards for Simon Says Stamp

Good morning! This morning I have a few projects to share that I created with the newest Gina K Release that is now available at Simon Says Stamp! I received a few items from the release, and had fun putting these festive cards together - as well as a fun little snowflake ornament! Scroll to the bottom of this post to see all the projects I created in more detail.

I did some stamping, ink blending, stenciling, and of course added lots of sparkly elements.  I used traditional Christmas colors of red and green, and set them off with some Navy and a hint of pink - it was a fun color palette that was so fun! You can find all the supplies linked below, and here are some photos showing more of the details on these cards:

Pink and Main - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Collaboration

 Hello again! Popping in today with the next in line of the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Exclusive Collaborations! It's hard to believe the month is more than half over! Today's collaboration is with Pink and Main, and is the cutest little holiday sweater set! I had fun pulling out my somewhat neglected Copic markers to color a couple of these cuties up!

I started off by stamping one of the sweaters from Warm and Fuzzy twice in black and clear heat embossing, then coloring those in with Copic markers (colors listed below!). I also stamped a sentiment, then die cut them all out. I stamped that same sweater a couple extra times on a white cardbase to create a fun background, then popped the colored sweaters and sentiment up with foam adhesive. I created a frame with Ivory glitter cardstock and an A2 Stitched Rectangle die, then added a generous sprinkle of coordinating enamel dots to add some extra color. For a final touch of sparkle, I added Nuvo glitter drops to the light bulbs on the sweaters - scroll to the bottom of the post to see how fun that touch is! Here are all the photos of the finished card:

Concord and 9th - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Collaboration

Hello again! After a couple days switching it up, I'm back with another of the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Exclusive Collaborations! Today is Concord and 9th with a STUNNING layering stamp set that I just love! Using a stamp positioner makes it easy to create multiples by stamping several times when you get each layer lined up. You know how much I love making a set!

I used the lovely Incredibly Grateful layering set to create all of these cards. I grabbed a bunch of inks that felt like a cross between spring and fall - muted, but still happy and bright - and my MISTI, and lined up and stamped each part of the image 3 times on panels of white cardstock. I used Cabbage, Artichoke, Kale, Zest, Salmon, Sky, Violet, Allspice, and Gingerbread. Once they were all done, I cut them out with the coordinating die. The sentiments are kind of genius as well! Those little ones are one stamp image, so I stamped in black ink and clear heat embossed, then die cut out with the one piece die that gives you each of the individual words to build your own sentiments with. Love it so much! The larger "thankful for you" sentiment was also part of the set, and I added it onto one of the cards as well. Here is a closer look at this fun set of cards:
